Lacunae in Iridology

Lacunae: The Meaning of Iris Holes in Iridology

"Lacuna" refers to a hole or gap on the surface of the iris. The term comes from Ancient Greek. In iridology, we look at what appears to be a hole or opening in the iris's fiber structure. These openings always have some defined boundary. There are many different types of lacunae, and they carry various types of information on both physical and psycho-emotional levels.

All lacunae are genetic markers. When we observe a lacuna in the iris, we are assessing the individual's genetic and family history. We can also evaluate the potential evolution or risk of the genetic tendencies or concerns present in the patient.

Lacunae are innate and therefore have no capacity to change over the course of our lives. A lacuna is pre-programmed embryologically regarding what and how it will be. There is no scientific data showing that a lacuna on the iris surface can disappear or change. A lacuna is a static formation indicating potential reactions or resistances in the associated organ or gland area.

Optical illusions of change may have occurred due to dynamics of the pupil, ocular pressure, and the actual changes in the use of photographic images for analysis. This once again highlights the need to examine the front eye with a microscope equipped with a fiber optic lighting system.

As a genetically determined structure, lacunae lead to a focus on preventive approaches in iridology and general medicine. For example, if a patient has a general lacuna at 15' on the left iris and 45' on the right or left iris in their heart topography, it indicates a likelihood of heart disease in the individual's family history.

A lacuna creates a potential for functional disruption at the cellular level. Although our body constantly attempts to compensate for any genetic differences, there remains a greater distance for cellular communication to be fully harmonious. Therefore, we have a prevalence of lacunae marking hormonal glands in the iris.

We need to remind ourselves of the endocrine responsibility and changes of the intestines, heart, and kidneys. Particularly during pregnancy, endocrine communication can be disrupted. This endocrine imbalance can lead to cellular fatigue and difficulties in functional coordination. A lacuna indicates a latent need for functional effort or a reduction in the vitality of the organ or anatomical area in question.

Based on current research, we can conclude that lacunae are a genetic imprint in the iris. They point to family medical experience rather than personal.

What Can a Lacuna Indicate?

• Energy deficiency

• Genetic disease tendencies or dysfunction

• Topographic location or structure of the lacuna

• Reaction potential

• Reduced resistance if the appearance is dark

• Functional cellular degradation

• Emotional receptivity and vulnerability

• Risk of time if found on the collar area

• Embryological marker if found in the pupil region

• Adaptability

  
  

When a pigmented or transversal lacuna appears, we need to investigate underlying disorders in that area:

• Experience of betrayal

• Necessity of personal positive challenges

• Disorganized style

• Hesitation and indecisiveness

• Request for help—emotional or physical

• Impulsive behavior

• Self-esteem concerns if located in the adrenal gland topography
